iOS SQLite Database

Introduction

Using SQLite to handle data in iOS. If you are already familiar with SQL, you can easily master the operations of SQLite databases.

Example Steps

  1. Create a simple View based application.
  2. Select the project file, then select the target, and add the libsqlite3.dylib library to the selected frameworks.
  3. Create a new file by selecting "File -> New -> File... ->" and choose Objective-C class, then click next.
  4. Set "sub class of" to NSObject and name the class DBManager.
  5. Select create.
  6. Update DBManager.h as follows:

    #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
    #import <sqlite3.h>
    
    @interface DBManager : NSObject
    {
        NSString *databasePath;
    }
    
    +(DBManager*)getSharedInstance;
    -(BOOL)createDB;
    -(BOOL) saveData:(NSString*)registerNumber name:(NSString*)name 
      department:(NSString*)department year:(NSString*)year;
    -(NSArray*) findByRegisterNumber:(NSString*)registerNumber;
    
    @end
    
  7. Update DBManager.m as follows:

    #import "DBManager.h"
    static DBManager *sharedInstance = nil;
    static sqlite3 *database = nil;
    static sqlite3_stmt *statement = nil;
    
    @implementation DBManager
    
    +(DBManager*)getSharedInstance{
        if (!sharedInstance) {
            sharedInstance = [[super allocWithZone:NULL]init];
            [sharedInstance createDB];
        }
        return sharedInstance;
    }
    
    -(BOOL)createDB{
        NSString *docsDir;
        NSArray *dirPaths;    
        // Get the documents directory
        dirPaths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains
        (NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);    
        docsDir = dirPaths[0];
        // Build the path to the database file
        databasePath = [[NSString alloc] initWithString: 
        [docsDir stringByAppendingPathComponent: @"student.db"]];
        BOOL isSuccess = YES;
        NSFileManager *filemgr = [NSFileManager defaultManager];    
        if ([filemgr fileExistsAtPath: databasePath ] == NO)
        {
            const char *dbpath = [databasePath UTF8String];        
            if (sqlite3_open(dbpath, &database) == SQLITE_OK)
            {
                char *errMsg;
                const char *sql_stmt =
                "create table if not exists studentsDetail (regno integer 
                primary key, name text, department text, year text)";            
                if (sqlite3_exec(database, sql_stmt, NULL, NULL, &errMsg) 
                   != SQLITE_OK)
                {
                    isSuccess = NO;
                    NSLog(@"Failed to create table");
                }
                sqlite3_close(database);
                return  isSuccess;
            }
            else {
                isSuccess = NO;
                NSLog(@"Failed to open/create database");
            }
        }
        return isSuccess;
    }
    
    -(BOOL) saveData:(NSString*)registerNumber name:(NSString*)name 
      department:(NSString*)department year:(NSString*)year;
    {
        const char *dbpath = [databasePath UTF8String];
        if (sqlite3_open(dbpath, &database) == SQLITE_OK)
        {
            NSString *insertSQL = [NSString stringWithFormat: 
              @"insert into studentsDetail (regno, name, department, year) 
              values (\"%@\", \"%@\", \"%@\", \"%@\")", 
              registerNumber, name, department, year];
            const char *insert_stmt = [insertSQL UTF8String];
            sqlite3_prepare_v2(database, insert_stmt, -1, &statement, NULL);
            if (sqlite3_step(statement) == SQLITE_DONE)
            {
                return YES;
            }
            else {
                return NO;
            }
            sqlite3_reset(statement);
        }
        return NO;
    }
    
    -(NSArray*) findByRegisterNumber:(NSString*)registerNumber
    {
        const char *dbpath = [databasePath UTF8String];
        if (sqlite3_open(dbpath, &database) == SQLITE_OK)
        {
            NSString *querySQL = [NSString stringWithFormat: 
              @"select name, department, year from studentsDetail where 
              regno=\"%@\"", registerNumber];
            const char *query_stmt = [querySQL UTF8String];
            NSMutableArray *resultArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
            if (sqlite3_prepare_v2(database, query_stmt, -1, &statement, NULL) 
               == SQLITE_OK)
            {
                if (sqlite3_step(statement) == SQLITE_ROW)
                {
                    NSString *name = [[NSString alloc] initWithUTF8String:
                                       (const char *) sqlite3_column_text
                                       (statement, 0)];
                    [resultArray addObject:name];
                    NSString *department = [[NSString alloc] initWithUTF8String:
                                            (const char *) sqlite3_column_text
                                            (statement, 1)];
                    [resultArray addObject:department];
                    NSString *year = [[NSString alloc]initWithUTF8String:
                                      (const char *) sqlite3_column_text
                                      (statement, 2)];
                    [resultArray addObject:year];
                    return resultArray;
                }
                else {
                    NSLog(@"Not found");

                }
                sqlite3_reset(statement);
            }
        }
        return nil;
    }
    
    @end
    

    isSuccess = NO; NSLog(@"Failed to create table"); } sqlite3_close(database); return isSuccess; } else { isSuccess = NO; NSLog(@"Failed to open/create database"); } } return isSuccess; }

  1. Update the ViewController.xib file as shown in the figure.

  2. Create IBOutlets for the above text fields.

  3. Create IBActions for the above buttons.

  4. Update ViewController.h as follows:

    #import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
    #import "DBManager.h"
    
    @interface ViewController : UIViewController<UITextFieldDelegate>
    {
        IBOutlet UITextField *regNoTextField;
        IBOutlet UITextField *nameTextField;
        IBOutlet UITextField *departmentTextField;
        IBOutlet UITextField *yearTextField;
        IBOutlet UITextField *findByRegisterNumberTextField;
        IBOutlet UIScrollView *myScrollView;
    }
    
    -(IBAction)saveData:(id)sender;
    -(IBAction)findData:(id)sender;
    
    @end
    
  5. Update ViewController.m as follows:

    #import "ViewController.h"
    
    @interface ViewController ()
    
    @end
    
    @implementation ViewController

        if (self) {
            // Custom initialization
        }
        return self;
    }
    
    - (void)viewDidLoad
    {
        [super viewDidLoad];
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.
    }
    
    - (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
    {
        [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
        // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
    }
    
    -(IBAction)saveData:(id)sender{
        BOOL success = NO;
        NSString *alertString = @"Data Insertion failed";
        if (regNoTextField.text.length>0 &&nameTextField.text.length>0 &&
        departmentTextField.text.length>0 &&yearTextField.text.length>0 )
        {
    
BOOL success = [[DBManager getSharedInstance] saveData:
        regNoTextField.text name:nameTextField.text department:
        departmentTextField.text year:yearTextField.text];
    }
    else {
        alertString = @"Enter all fields";
    }     
    if (success == NO) {
        UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:
        alertString message:nil
        delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
        [alert show];
    }
}

-(IBAction)findData:(id)sender {
    NSArray *data = [[DBManager getSharedInstance] findByRegisterNumber:
    findByRegisterNumberTextField.text];
    if (data == nil) {
        UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:
        @"Data not found" message:nil delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:
        @"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
        [alert show];
        regNoTextField.text = @"";
        nameTextField.text = @"";
        departmentTextField.text = @"";
        yearTextField.text = @"";
    }
    else {
        regNoTextField.text = findByRegisterNumberTextField.text;
        nameTextField.text = [data objectAtIndex:0];
        departmentTextField.text = [data objectAtIndex:1];
        yearTextField.text = [data objectAtIndex:2];
    }
}

#pragma mark - Text field delegate
-(void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
    [myScrollView setFrame:CGRectMake(10, 50, 300, 200)];
    [myScrollView setContentSize:CGSizeMake(300, 350)];
}
-(void)textFieldDidEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
    [myScrollView setFrame:CGRectMake(10, 50, 300, 350)];

}
-(BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField {

    [textField resignFirstResponder];
    return YES;
